An out-of-the-box audio play and collaboration between Adrienne Wong (Neworld Theatre,
Vancouver BC) and Dustin Harvey (Secret Theatre, Halifax NS) about the collapse of distances that pairs you with another
audience member a thousand kilometers away. They describe the experience: "With departures every fifteen minutes from home base in Alderney Landing,
an audio guide prompts you to drift through the city streets and to stop at
a series of locations linked to your memories and imagination. You conjure
another city thousands of miles away, and there find your real-life scene
partner. The story invites you to begin a short conversation by text message
on topics like memories, absent loved ones, and massive change. At the end
of the walk, you are drawn back to Alderney Landing where you will find your
scene partner in Ottawa, Ontario, this time on live video. Now face to face,
how much will you reveal, and how much further will the conversation go?"
